Abstract

We develop and characterise new high-performance nano-engineered magneto-optic materials for use in laser-microscopy- based magnetic field visualisers featuring high sensitivity and resolution, low cost and small size. This type of visualisers will make it possible for forensic experts to recover erased data previously stored in high- and ultrahigh-density magnetic disks and hard disk drives.
